gh-tools

GitHub productivity tools

• gh-purge-artifacts Purge GitHub Actions artifacts across GitHub repositories
• gh-go-rdeps Find reverse Go dependencies across GitHub repositories
• gh-find Walk file hierarchies across GitHub repositories
• gh-pr Automate PR creation across GitHub repositories
• gh-watch Manage notification subscriptions across GitHub repositories

Authentication

All tools require a GitHub personal access token in order to authenticate API requests and use following methods, in the order of precedence, to infer/set the token:

• -token flag, in which case the user will be asked to enter the token interactively

• GHTOOLS_TOKEN environment variable

• GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable

• ~/.config/gh-tools/auth.yml file, containing the token

  oauth_token: <token>

• GitHub's official CLI tool gh configuration file, to avoid creating separate personal accesss tokens

Here's how you can create a personal access token.

Your personal access token may need the following scopes to use gh-tools:

• repo
• workflow
• read:user

The explicit worklow scope is requred if you want to be able to make changes to GitHub Actions workflow files with gh-pr tool.
